There’s a string of supermoons this spring. So if
you miss the upcoming lunar show, catch the
next one May 7.
In mid-April, the waning moon will pass by
Saturn, Jupiter and Mars, clustered in the
southeastern sky before dawn.
All this comes after a brilliant Venus passed a few
days ago in front of the Pleiades, the so-called
Seven Sisters star cluster.
“We’ve really been fortunate to have some good
astronomy — backyard astronomy or living
room astronomy,” Petro said.
